SATURDAY, JANUARY 29. 1949 ' .A'.,.lV, .:h-:-jcV' Si'c H liiiii O Social Security Benefits Earned, Not a Charity Social security benefits .re earned insuranoe, not a charity, Paul F. Johnson, manager of the ugene office ol old age and sur vivors Insurance is not a dole, but an annuity based upon the wage earner's contribution, his own by right of purchase, some thing to he proud of. He is disturbed by the fact that some people apparently feel they must apologize when they file claim for these benefits. There have been actual cases of wage earners 65 years of age and older who have lost benpfits by not filing a claim when their only reason was simply that they had too much pride to admit they were 65 years old and out of a job. Johnson urges that every wage earner who has worKed in em nlovment covered by the Socia Security Act should, when he at tains age 65, get in touch with the social security field office lo cated at Eugene. For the con venience of those people residing in tne Kosenurg area, a repre sentative will be at the Oregon State Employment Service in Kosenurg mesday, renruary i, between 8:30 a. m. and 12 noon. Any person wishing assistance In filing a claim for social security benefits, or who has any question concerning the Social Security Administration, should contact him at that time.

""S. lit ' - New South Progressing at Faster Pace Than it Seems to Realize By HAL BOYLE BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Jan. 2a. i.V Ole Massa with the mint julep in his hand don't live here any more. Yes, suh, there was an Old South there really was. But now, yes suh, there's a New South there really Is. And the New South Is right here, springing up like dandelions, getting purty as a speckled pup on a red wagon. Of course, those hammerheads up nawth don't know the New South Is arriving. But, you know, It's a funny thing -a visitor gets the odd feel ing the people down this way don't realize how far they've gone In the direction they're go ing. They have a luncheon or a ban quet, yes suh, they generally or certainly do. And they generally and almost certainly also will have at least one speaker who will discuss "The New South." Well, it's a funny thing about that secch. It is pretty likely to bring up the roses and raptures of the Old South. And everybody gets chiiiiky-in-the throat anil misty-eyed over the glamorous past. And then the speaker, In a brief and defiant llnale, comes out flatly with a prediction the "New South everybody's been waiting for Is on the way, sure as Justice." Ancestral Tradition As a Missouri-born stranger whose folks got here from Ire land too iate to get mixed up in the America's famous family ouanvl. I claim I am as unpreju diced as a man can be who be lieves Robert E. Lee got directed to the wrong court house at Ap piimmattox. My Immigrant grandfather, who came from Southern Ireland, slaved out of this foreign Ameri can fuss until he learned that the South had "lost." From then on he rented his 17 children in the faith that the South must have been right. But he didn't blame Abraham Lincoln or General Grant. He blamed the British. He knew they wen' responsible for Southern Ireland's plight, and he was sure they had a tropic al lergy here, too.

Mrs. able to break; Into the schedule. bv the seonrn't-w nlt vV " what I think of when I hear these grandsons of one of the worst military occupations in history talk about the "New South." I have seen two recent Ameri can overseas military occupations in Germany and Japan and I am sure they were softer than the occupation the "pore South" suffered. After all, if your mother-in-law moves In, doesn't she muscle there longer than any body? But that brings mc bid; to ilii real point which is, what hap pens after mamtny-ln-law, moves out ? Well, it is hard to realize. And I think It is hard for the South to realize that It is freer than it knows and maybe going farther than it understands. There aren't so many leaning tar and tin covered wood shan ties on a hillside now. Brick buildings are gong up, factories are opening. People, black and white, are coming home with more take-home monev. Sch ol buildings for the poor white, the poor black, are rising in every area.

Stephens Ph. 1023-J Federal Funds to Relieve Storm Stricken Area (Continued from Page One) needed for the rescue work. Reopen Highways The funds are being used to open highways and roads so food supplies and water can be de livered to stranded cattle, as well as to snowbound rancher!. Flem ing is to leave Monday for a tour of the stricken area. He said new reports of emergencies came from Montana and Arizona and he said he might make allocations to those states later. Gov. Peterson said that a con gressional appropriation of be tween $2.(X,000 and $3,000,000 was needed to relieve the des perate conditions in Nebraska, Wyoming and South Dakota. About 135 bulldozers already have been assigned to the Nebraska blizzard area and more from the Fifth army were on the way. But the new snow blockade halted the relief work. Congress Is mapping plans to boost by another 53,000.000 the current fund available for relief in 10 western states. The new blast of cold air and strong winds was most severe In the north central states. But tem peratures were below freezing in Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, South ern Arkansas, Central Texas, Northern New Mexico, Northern Arizona and Southern Nevada. Commies Plant Guns On Banks of Yangtze (Continued from Page One) Nanking, was telephoned from Red-controlled Pelping by Acting President Li Tsung-Jen's special representative. Commenting on the demand, an informed Chi nese source observed: "LI Tsung-Jen may find some way out, but we Chinese cannot imagine what It will be." No Peace Seen This source added that the de mand places Li "in an Impossible position and ostensibly means there will be no peace." The Communists artillery em placements are situated so they can shell river, rail and high way traffic to Shanghai, China's industrial and commercial center, 150 miles east by soul. With the Reds hardly five miles north of Nanking, and across the Yangtze, this half-abandoned cap ital all but forget that today was China's new year usually an oc casion for celebration. Li's representative also tele phoned that the Communist de mand continued detention of Ja panese war criminals. He said the Keus demanded tne re-arrest or Japanese Lt. Gen. Yasujl Oka- mura, wnom a Shanghai court ac quitted earlier this week. Injunction Elimination Asked in New Labor Bill (Continued from Page One) "national paralysis" strikes. The first step would be for the president to appoint an emergen cy fact finding board. Such boards would have authority to make re commendations for setlement. Under the Taft-Hartley law In quiry boards can report only on tne issues without suggesting any solution. Procedure Given Here Is the detailed procedure for handling national emergency strikes as outlined in the admin istration's bill: When the president found that a national emergency is threat ened or exist In a vital Industry which affecH the public Interest, he would issue a proclamation saying so. lhe proclamation also would call on the disputing parties to re train Irom a strike or, II a strike had started, to resume work "in the public interest." 1 lie president would appoint an emergency hoard. The board would start immediately to Inves tigate the dispute and try to ar range a settlement. 25 Days to Report The board would have a maxi mum of 25 days after Issuance of the proclamation to report to the preisdentt unless the board and the disputants agreed to take moi"0 time. The board's report would In clude its findings and recommen dations. The report would be made public. The bill provides that prior to the board's report and for five days after it has been made: "The parties to the dispute shall continue to or resume work and operations under the terms and conditions of employment which were in effect immediately prior to the beginning of a dispute, unless a change therein is agreed to by the parlies." There is no provision In the bill for anv step by the government after the 30-day "cooling off" per iodthe 25 days the board would have to report plus the five-day waiting period after It reports.

North Phone 695-R-2 Standing Reserves of Corn, Wheat, Cotton Purpose Of Measure by Senator Thomas WASHINGTON. Jan. 28. P A bill to establish permanent re serves of wheat, corn and cotton was introduced yesterday by Sen ator Elmer Thomas (D.-Okla.). Thomas, chairman of the Sen ate Agriculture Committee, called it an "ever normal granary" plan. He said it would set "a price floor for farm products" and also pro tect consumers against "run-away prices." And the stockpiles, he added, will be available for use in case of drought, war or other emer gencies. The bill provides that the per manent reserve of wheat snail be 400,000,000 bushels; of corn, 600,000,000 bushels; and of cot ton 4,500,00 bales. Commodities placed In these permanent reserves, Thomas ex plained, would not be counted as part of the total supply in de- terming acreage allotments, mar keting quotas or price support levels. The stockpiles would be built up through the support program. Fossil Remains of Prehistoric BERKELEY. Cal.. Jan. 28.

When the stockpile of any com modity equalled the specified goal, the secretary would hold a referendum among producers of whether quotas should be pro vided for the next year's crop. If the growers failed to approve production controls, sup port prices for the commodity could be withdrawn until such time as the stockpile was reduced. The bill would permit federal loans and subsidies to develop an adequate number of warehouses, elevators and other storage facili ties. Thomas' bill also provides that the 1949 wheat and cotton crops shall not be taken into considera tion in fixing any future acreage allotments. He said the purpose is to dis courage large plantings of both crops since surpluses are expected. Dog Discovered like the modern coyote, said Dr. Stirton, but had shorter legs, heavier paws, and massive teeth for crushing smaller animals. It belonged to a group of animals scientifically known as tomarc turus robustus. Fossil pieces of this type have been found in sev eral places previously. However, this is the first almost complete fossil skeleton of its kind to be uncovered, Dr. Stirton said. in Jackson County officials Friday. The latest per son stricken was a baby at Ash land.
